Here’s the question: Why was this virus treated differently than Swine Flu in 2009?

That’s crappola! A virus has to have a host to live. If you have a population of 10,000 and do nothing, then eventually 10,000 will get the virus. If you quarantine half of them, then only 5,000 can possibly catch the virus.

Rather interesting findings but I would think that what would be more important is the infection rate. It would help to estimate how many of the population will contract the virus once exposed and to what degree will be their sickness level? That would tell the story of how overwhelmed the medical system would be, help estimate true death projections, and provide forecasts on economic issues. Telling us the life cycle of the virus only provides an end date.

As I remember Fauci has been wrong on almost every epidemic during his tenure in the US government, AIDS, MERS, SARS, H1N1 and Swine Flu. Holding a government post for decades guarantees neither competency or virtue. He is a fraud - either deliberately or because of incompetency which is convenient for his masters. To quote an old professor, it seems that Fauci suffers from delusions of adequacy.

Waiting for Hockey Stick McGee to comment on this.

You're a classic case of gross ignorance. You are mistaking the virus with the disease. Having been infected with the virus does not mean you have or will ever have the disease. As a matter of fact my guess is 80% with the virus are asymptomatic.

We need to fight the disease and not the virus. Do you see the difference?

Perhaps this virus rides a host microscopic organism. There’s your complete weapon. When the host dies, the virus dies. That’s my theory.

To be very clear: he did NOT show that quarantine measures were unnecessary. What he showed is that the quarantine measures could take different forms and still be effective. It would take more study to determine what is most effective, but most likely the effectiveness is highly dependent on the culture. Because it is not only the social distancing (stay 6 feet/2 meters away from other people) that puts germ barriers between people, but the strict adherence to the social distancing policies. In a country where the government can say things like, “Stay 6 feet away from each other, wash your hands frequently, cough into your sleeve” and achieve a high level of compliance among the citizenry probably does not have to go to stricter measures. But in a country where a large fraction of the population questions and scoffs at such measures, where compliance is lower, more strictly enforced measures are probably necessary. Also, another factor in compliance would be the populace’s experience with dangerous infectious disease. Many Asian countries have had these experiences, so take warnings very seriously. Versus many Western countries where infectious diseases are taken so lightly that anti-vax movements thrive. There are a lot of factors in the mix here.

The testing was all very random and different in each country, charting progress is meaninglessness between countries. I know this guy thinks he sees something but he’s mistaken.

Stop it. We are bending and damaging society to conform with a model and not really fighting the disease. The worst of all possibilities.

I don’t even recall that there was a Swine Flu in 2009. I do remember reading or hearing on the News that there was one in 1976.

The linked story has a link to the original story.

Go there and the second half is Doc’s pushing back with “he has no data to support his views”. From people who shut down the world with “NO” data - just projections.

No data to support his views. That’s an awful big club these days.

What changed and why.

I think the answers will be very instructive.

What do you mean by "get the virus"? Thousands will be exposed to it, but the first-line immunity of most will fight it off before it develops into illness.
